TIE Phantom

By Gosric, in X-Wing

I believe im almost done with this but before i uploaded it wanted to get opinions from any who might be interested. All that remains to do is a bit of panel detailing and the fuselage guns unless anyone has any suggestions.

The cockpit feels far too long, also the er, pods between the wings feel a touch small.

rectifiable

Ok. Intakes increased in size, fuselage shortened, back of the panels tilted forward a bit. I am done *S*

I think this is the one im going with

And while i was at it i made the 4 winged missile and laser armed TIE Spectre. Maybe it is pointless but i like the look of it *L*

And in a big galaxy there will no doubt be a lot of prototypes or custom orders from different factions so why not.

Actually, I quite like the look of the Spectre there! It's like the Empire wanted an X-Wing of their own!! :)

With some clever paintwork that spectre can double as an "Ugly" cobbled from TIEs and civilian freighters ;) ;)

Isn't that the Hunter?

which does have closeable S-Foils.. though I'm not a huge fan, I think the Spectre looks better

The Hunter is all kinds of hideous... and I forgot it happened :)

Gosric,

Thank you. Actually they are up now. I think there was something from one of the rpgs maybe in the back of my mind when i was makeing the Spectre but i cannot remember what it was. Up next, the ridiculous TIE Geist

And lastly in this weird streak of TIE variants the TIE Geist. The heavy bomber with stealth capabilities. 2 of the wing guns replaced by ions, twin ordnance launchers in place of the fuselage lasers and a bomb bay. This ship takes advantage of its extra crewmember and stealth to deliver accurately targeted crippling blows to heavy enemy ships and bases. While not as fast or agile as its TIE relaitives its shields and firepower make it a force to be reckoned with

Not entirely sold on the Geist.. but hell if you have made it put it up.. Ship design is entirely subjective and I'm sure you will find some uncouth tasteless vagabond punter to buy it.

What is your opinion of the Old Republic Sith Fighter btw... for some reason the Spectre reminded me of it.

Not completely sold on the Geist myself actually but as you say, since i had it already i might as well put it up. I like the Sith fighter.i can see what you mean about the resemblance. I looked around and the thing that was in my head was the TIE Devastator. i was toying with making a single seat standard ball version of the Spectre which might look even more likethe Sith ship. which might work as iIm building up to tackling the Fury from Old Republic
